COLLETTSVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Authorities in western North Carolina are searching for a man swept away in a rain-swollen creek after recovering the body of a 10-year-old girl who had been swimming with him.

The victims were from two Charlotte families who were swimming in a usually calm pool section of Wilson Creek, about 100 miles north of Charlotte.

Authorities say the girl’s body was recovered Saturday evening after being spotted by kayakers about three-quarters of a mile from where she had been swimming.

Parts of Catawba, Lincoln and Cleveland received up to a foot of rain Saturday as a result of a slow-moving rain system that brought flash floods and power outages.

Officials in Catawba County say crews are checking reports of damage to 130 homes and other buildings.
